writing

I was in a mixed class of kids from grades two and three, and whenever a concept was grade-three-only the teacher would assign the grade two students some questions and tell them to sit in a corner and ignore her lesson. I got in some trouble back then for persisting in listening to her lessons instead of doing my work, but hey, I sure was good at multiplying by the time I hit later grades. Okay, so that story had almost nothing to do with cunnilingus, but it’s relevant.

I’m tired of receiving Microsoft Office files, so I’ve prepared a response for that situation. It’s largely not an original work – rather it’s a customized compilation of thoughts from various sources. I’m mostly putting it here for reference.

If you’re like most people, you’re probably dreading the night before the deadline, when you finally get around to actually writing that essay. But I actually think essays are a great genre of writing; they’re just frequently maligned by people who either get disheartened with lame topic assignments, or people who just don’t like writing in the first place. I think a lot of people look at it from the wrong perspective: this is your only chance to argue with the prof without getting an automatic F, after all.

The reason I haven’t been posting many rambles recently is because I’ve been swamped with work, both on my own website and with school, so the fact that I’ve entered into a challenge to write a 50,000-word novel in a month seems more like a venture into the world of self-harm than a simple test of my writing skills.
